[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeNasty3:
So it seems everything went well and I now have 4G!

The only problem I am having now is that Titanium failed me for the second time at restoring my apps! Again I have to redownload all of my apps from the market, then restore the data backups. It keeps giving me an error message when I try to restore the apps from Titanium. This happened on CM7 RC1 too.

Any recomendations for another app to backup and restore all my apps and data in the future? I am getting fed up with Titanium...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nosympathy:
I think this is a known issue with TB on CM7 with the current nightlies.

personally, I use My Backup Pro. you can backup texts, mms, home screen layout and system settings. (obviously going from CM7 to say Myns you wouldn't want to restore system settings.) it can backup your alarms and so forth.

also it can back them up to the "cloud" so you don't waste space on your SD card.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeNasty3:
Hmm, I guess I am not the only one which makes me feel better. I will have to try My Backup Pro. As long as it backs up my apps data I am happy, all my Angry Bird's progress...I shudder just thinking about losing it....;) And yes, I would definately not restore system settings when going between roms, made that mistake once...:p

Edit: Oh yah, what is the difference between the paid version called My Backup Pro, and the free version My Backup Root?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikegoldnj:
I'm running the latest nightly but even in known 4g area the phone just keeps scanning. Checked my keys and that's ok.

Anyone else having this issue?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jimdog420:
All prl does is update the roaming list. Adds new towers so unless u travel alot it's not such a big deal to worry about keeping this updated.

You will need to update ur profile anytime u mess with the radios with a sense rom to basically sync your new radio configuration or "profile " to sprint

And do yourself a favor and get. Sculpted 2.0 theme for the latest nightly. Shift really tricked this one out.

Swyped from a galaxy far far away......

I am looking to create a custom ROM, and would love to have a few people who were wanting to get into it also to bounce ideas, issues and solutions, back and forth..or possibly a callaboration...anyone willing PM me and lets get started..If you think this is a dumb post just move along..not looking for any criticism..just some fun..and I know "not anyone can just start creating ROMs", but i have a background in web development..and coding...just like I said looking to have some fun..and if you know of any good links to help point me in the right directions..they are always appreciated :)

[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
I am leaving att simply because of their shotty data plan. I am also looking at the Incredible because of the unlocked unencrypted bootloader as the droid x has as well as the htc quality that ive seen in the past. I listen to alot of internet radio and 2gbs just isnt enough sorry att and im even more sorry that after 6 years youll be losing 3 lines. At 150.00 a month.

Without starting a pissing match, what rom is good on battery and speed? Generally looking for some user experience reviews.

[Droid Incredible General] RMarkwald:
HeyItsLou's ROMs always gave me great battery life, with Chad's kernels. Right now I am running CM7 Nightly #7, and the battery life is alright for me, not bad enough to switch to something else. Other than that I really like CM7.

I've always had great battery life with the Inc/Evo hybrid ROMs too, I know Lou's got one...there's others out there too by Myn and Chingy.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Thanks! How is your data on verizon?

Sent from Xda Premium on a Captivate running Paragon 6
[Droid Incredible General] RMarkwald:
Like you, I switched from ATT. I had a Curve with them, and the BB was slow along with their network. I had friends on Verizon, and I loved Verizon's phones, so I jumped. Been happy ever since. I live in Madison, WI, and haven't had any issues with 3g drops, dropped calls, or anything like that. I use WiFi alot too, about 50% of the time. I haven't had any complaints about it since switching, it was a great move I think.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
This is the kind of thing i need to hear. I am on long island and its not that data is that bad, but att just doesnt get it, 2gbs just isnt enough.

[Droid Incredible General] NickTheCreator:
Just adding some input, i love verizon alot and literally have no complaints. I live in California, and i cant remember the last time i dropped a call, or thought 3g was too slow. I use ALOT of data and its a great feeling not having to care about any 3g limits.
[Droid Incredible General] RMarkwald:
Agreed. The last time I remember a call dropping wasn't even my phone/Verizon's fault, it was my brother on Sprint that dropped it. I use data way more than voice, and use my phone heavy for work emails and phone calls (phone calls - only if I am out of the office though).

Do you know anyone that uses Verizon in Long Island that you could ask about the service? Maybe stop someone you see with an Inc or another Verizon phone and ask, just to get an idea of how it operates where you are at. I wouldn't think there would be issues. Just a thought.

My 0.02 cents. Versions network is vastly superior to att. In terms of coverage my dad had an iphone on att and we were driving in Minnesota using google nav to get somewhere. His phone hits a dead spot. We switch to my inc and get there. His phone was in the dead spot the entire time after that. I mean 0 bars, and he wants to switch his entire company next time the contacts run out
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
Verizon has more coverage for sure. But if you're in an area that actually has at&t coverage, I also think you won't be disappointed at Verizons 3G speeds.

I'm able to stream hulu (modded flash, normally does not stream to phones) to my phone perfectly, watch full episodes without anymore than a 5 second buffer. What makes that statement better is I'm able to do it in an area that has low bar 3G coverage.

And you're right about the unlocked bootloader the incredible has. My dad has the X and there isn't a whole lot of options you can do to increase performance and speed. Pretty much you're only able to swap out ROM's.

The incredible is different, I've been able to change kernels, the splash screen and boot animation, as well as the ROM.

The ROM's choices available are really pretty amazing. There's a bunch of really talented developers here, you can take a quick look at the list here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=969371

So I would definitely recommend you jump ship and go with the Incredible on Verizon :p
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
I am definitley jumping ship and bringing all three lines over to verizon. I am waiting until monday when i am off from work again so i can sit down and make sure everything is ported over correctly. I already am deciding what rom and kernel im running and it seems to point to skyraider and maybe incredikernel unless you have other suggestions. As far as rooting goes ill be using unrevoked.

[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
Ah excellent choices my friend ;)

You may end up trying out some other ROM's, I know I have- but I always found myself going back to that combination because of the stability, speed and battery life it has provided me.

There are plenty of ROM's I have never tried, so it's all out there to experiment with.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Believe me I flash roms more than I probably should but, Im really excited to use android the way it was meant to be used with unlimited data. Im talking 8-12 hours of continuous sirius and/or pandora usage.

[Droid Incredible General] midnight assassin:
Buy a bigger battery my friend.

Also, I never have any issues with vzw when I'm on L.I. or anywhere else. Enjoy.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
I get a 25% discount from verizon so I will be getting the 2150mah battery.
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
ah that's what I'm using :)

It's good that you're getting it straight off so you get use to it with it on, some people have a hard time switching.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Well I use the seidio 3000mah battery which is a monster on my captivate. So the size should be no problem. With a little more research i found redemption rom which looks nice. One question I can't get a definitive answer to is on radios. I have flashed radios in the past and was wondering if its absolutely necessary to on the incredible?
[Droid Incredible General] 3tern1ty:
As far as speed goes, I use Incredibly Reengineered its uberfast... for battery life I installed Set CPU to save on batt when I'm low, but I'm never far from a charger. If battery life is more important there's a bunch of ROMs that have excellent life but it's all personal preference.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
I am going with re-engineered v2.3.2 and using the lou's #8 which is already built into the rom. As far as sense goes I'll be stripping it and using the aosp theme. As far as radio's go should I just use the one that is shipped with the phone which is being delivered on friday or should I flash a different one? What about HBoot version? I didnt see if I needed to update HBoot to a different version. Thanks in advance!
[Droid Incredible General] ithrewitontheground:
This might be to late if you already ordered it, but the droid bionic and incredible s are coming soon. Also, verizon data plans might be getting tiered as well, but at least you'll have two years of unlimited.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
I know about the upcoming releases, but I'd rather get something well developed in the htc brand. I don't care about having the biggest, best new phone because the most I do is listen to sirius, pandora and play some gensoid or nesoid. The Incredible will handle all of these things with ease. I have a psp so gaming on a portable device falls in that category. As long as I have internet radio and XDA app I'm set through my long days. All of this is based off running an htc magic for almost two years and I was thrilled with it. THe captivate was great but it required alot of time to get to 99% functional.
[Droid Incredible General] 3tern1ty:
Good choice on ROM. I didn't need to change the HBoot, and I'm using the radio it was shipped with. I used my phone for about three days before I rooted and installed that ROM and I haven't had ANY issues at all. In fact it's the best phone I've ever used.
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
For radio's you'll get different answers from different people, but for the most part it does not help at all and some of them are a tad buggy. The one that comes with the incredible (after you update it OTA) will run well so I suggest you stick with it.

Some ROM's will require you to have .92 HBOOT, so you might want to update it if you're looking to flash one of those.

And as far as stripping down sense goes, that's exactly what I did. I uninstalled a bunch of stuff and ran Launcher Pro instead of using Rosie. Battery life wasn't impacted, but I did enjoy having the features LP offered like hiding apps in the app drawer and some of the transitions it brings.

I wish I did as much research you did when I first got my incredible. I ran stock for a couple of months before stumbling onto XDA :/
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
ive been around for a few years modding and flashing multiple phones but have been away from htc for a while and forgot some of the important stuff. What is the most recent ota radio?
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
Looking on my phone now, it's '2.15.00.07.28'
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Thanks. I'll see when I get it tomorrow if I even need the ota update.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
As far as the bionic, Motorola can keep it. The incredible s is nice but it doesnt warrant me paying for it because its not going to be a free phone on release. I am getting the incredible free and it will do fine for at least the next year until something worth while comes out. But thanks for the heads up.
[Droid Incredible General] kdb424:
I don't mean to sound like a fanboy when it comes to cyanogenmod, but I'd really suggest checking it out. If your stripping sense off anyways, may as well go with a full (and faster/better battery life in general) AOSP ROM like cyanogen. That's a personal beliefe, and some will argue otherwise, but I have tried countless times to find a better rom for myself and no matter how hard I try, I keep going back to Cymod 7. Running chas kernel as it's excellent at battery life, even on a stock battery, has quickcharge (and seems to be doing fine en temps, and replacement batteries are $7 USD even if it hurt the battery which it doesn't seem to). On top of that, I don't know anyone who has an underclocked phone that runs as smooth as mine on a smartass govenor. 2-3 days with no charge on stock battery with smooth as butter performance? How can it get better?
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
I've used cyan in the past on my magic so maybe I'll check it out again. Thanks
[Droid Incredible General] shadowmonk36:
For something completely different check out MIUI. Its not necessarily the best performance or battery wise, but it has been my main ROM the past 4 months. It is a re-imagining of the aosp experience.
[Droid Incredible General] Rom-Addict:
INCROM is a good one

sent from dinc
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Dinc came yesterday! First impression over captivate, Amoled on Dinc is nicer than samsung amoled. Build quality seems better even if the captivate has some metal parts, and lag seems to be non-existent on stock sense. Will be rooting later tonight.
[Droid Incredible General] POQbum:
It'll only get better from there :D

Hope it lives up to expectations ;)
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Currently reading about cm7 rc1 with Chad's kernel and it looks promising.
[Droid Incredible General] dbow32:
I have an Dinc and I listen to Sirius Radio all day long. I am currently running Myn's Warm z and love it. I've tried several but this one is the best IMO. Just don't use Lou's #8 Kernel because it caused problems with the Sirius App.

Hope that helps

[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Thanks for all the suggestions. Keep ' em coming
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
As per Charlie Sheen, Winning!!! Rooted and S-off using unrevoked 3! Now let the flashing addiction begin!
[Droid Incredible General] Thoss:
In case you're still looking for recommendations...

The best battery life I have personally experienced is the stock ROM with Launcher Pro and Heyitslou #8 kernel...oddly enough. Ran quite smooth too.

Performance wise the best for me has been CM7 nightly 12 and incredikernel. I really dig the flexibility and customization options of the AOSP ROMs.

As others have said though it definitely comes down to preference and what works best on your specific phone. Nandroid early nandroid often and flash flash flash
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Running cm7 and its up to expectations. Now to decide what I'm going to do about the kernel.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Everything's great except reception is weak.
[Droid Incredible General] J2theMatt:
Rom: CM7 Nightly 12

Kernel: Tiamat 3.1.4+ (fast, decent battery)

Radio: 7.28, 11.19 gave me troubles
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
What's the deal with reception on these things?
[Droid Incredible General] kdb424:
I wondered that too. I was runnin the radio that come with it. I'd suggest updating the radio which is in the android development forum floating around. I flashed the new evo radio to my INC with no issues. I'm sorry I have a migraine or I'd link you. I'd second the incredikernel. Run it and it's VERY responsive, overclockable (or not as it's not needed) and has the best quick charge around. I have noticed a warmer battery but definitely in the safe ranges, and no hotter than when in heavy use off charge (42c is the most extream I have EVER seen, and batteries are safe p to 60c)
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Update to my reception issue.

I just finished porting the numbers over from att and did the *228 thing and now I have full reception bars with crazy data speeds. Before I did the update I would see a fluctuation between 1-3 bars constantly. Also battery seems to be holding up well especially with the signal holding steady at full bars. I thought I was going to return the dinc with buyers remorse, but I couldn't be happier the way this thing is running! Thanks for all the suggestions and look foward to this forum flourishing for a long while.

lol good, was about to say- reception on my incredible is the best out of the 6 verizon phones I've had.
[Droid Incredible General] davwman:
Just found out that I got the SLCD version and not Amoled. Is this good or bad?
[Droid Incredible General] whewstoosae:
Slcd gives you better clarity on text, amoled has better saturation and true color representation. There aren't many significant benefits of either although I do love my amoled. Just be sure whatever kernel/rom/recovery you flash supports slcd, which most devs do anyway.

Finally.... perfect, I was just thinking about posting that it would be nice is someone would make some honeycomb apps already
[Xoom Themes and Apps] Botero:
Technically it is not a honeycomb app... it runs on the Atrix as well. You can tell it wasn't designed for honeycomb alone because it adds the menu button to the bottom left like all android 2.x apps do. This makes me sad becausee I want to feel special. It does feel like it knows you are on a Xoom though as the layout is perfect and the app works exactly like it should.

Hi All!

I agree with most people that I go back and forth about how much I love or hate my Xoom, but I willing to wait it out a few more days.

Two things that would help:

1. I have set up my exchange email at work. I love the new mail app for the most part and it syncs well. However, why did they set it so that pictures within the email appear as attachments and one inline? My DInc shows them inline - why can't Xoom? Also very annoying...when responding to meeting requests, I can deny, but I don't have the option to not send a response which I prefer to do since I'm on a list, but don't generally need to attend their meetings. That is, I get all their meeting request, which I would decline, but the sender doesn't need to receive notification of my declining.

2. I'm looking for a good way to take notes in a meeting and have it synced to something. Ideally something I can have directly on the home screen, so it can be one-click. What do you guys use? So far, I've tried:

a. Dropbox (but I dont think it syncs up)

b. Google docs via DocsToGo - not a bad option, but it's several clicks to get to a screen where I can write

c. A direct link to a google doc, but this requires internet connection

any ideas?

much appreciated.

Sorry if this already have been discused.

I'm working for some time to make my O1 Usb host capable and yesturday i found this app on the market (sorry, can't post links cuz i'm new, you cand find it on the market with a simple search), USB Mode switcher of Xvision. Xvision i figured is a rom from alex163 (correct me if I'm wrong).

My question is if somebody tried this already. Because obviously i don't want to install that ROM. The USB Mode app is very simple, once launched you get 2 options: USB Host & USB Slave ( +3 lines of japanese description on both of them which i don't understand and didn't managed to translate ), once clicked on one of them it says: "Switching USB mode. Your device will reboot shortly, please wait!" (nothing happens). I want to know if somebody tried it, or can translate it to me.

If this will not work, next week i'll try with a Male microUSB B + Female USB A + one beagle joined to 4st and 5nd pad with a switch for boot kicking usb into host mode.

For those who don't know what is USB host mode

Your pc is a host, you phone is a client

result:connect a keyboard,mouse,memory stick,gamepad,etc. to your phone

(unfortunately the chipset of my phone is not capable of giving power to devices
